Favorite Science Fiction from Many Movie Eras

Could go on and on in this genre. Was thinking of dividing it into about twenty sub-genres and doing twenty for each one. But decided instead to just do a bunch of favorites from various eras. Remember seeing the original Invasion of the Body Snatchers on TV as a kid and finding it quite scary. The Jules Verne movies of the 50s and 60s probably made me a science fiction fan. See how many of these movies from many different eras you can recognize!
